The Micron Data Modem is an exciting new development in the field of through-water communications. It provides robust spread spectrum data transmission from an extremely compact and low cost unit.
The Micron Data Modem can also be used as a responder or transponder for ROV and AUV tracking applications. A remote battery powered option is also available.
Due to its miniature size and low weight, the Micron Data Modem is suitable for a host of potential subsea data transfer applications that were previously impractical or uneconomic with larger, more expensive systems. With a range of up to 1km from its omni-directional transducer, and the ability to network multiple units subsea, the Micron Modem is a superb solution for many data through-water communication applications.
It may also be integrated into the new Micron Nav tracking system, as a single subsea tracking sensor for ROV and AUV of all sizes or again as part of a network.
